Playing 2 characters without triggers and scripts is easy, you just have to decide to not be lazy. I simply open 2 clients and use alt-tab on a PC to switch between the characters.

If you are unable to manage playing 2 characters with the speed and precision you'd like then you're always welcome to simply play 1.

download mushclient. make two worlds, one called "arctic one", the other "arctic two".

go to world settings, go to scripts. turn the script type to VB Basic.

create aliases. the simplest is z *, to output this:


set otherworld = world.getworld ("arctic two")

if not (otherworld is nothing) then
  otherworld.send "%1"
  set otherworld = nothing 
end if


turn the "send to" dropdown box to "script" in the alias. now in your main window, just type "z rest", and the other window will rest. now you play with one window, but in split screen. make sure to turn the output to script in the alias though or it won't work.

you can also set real aliases. i.e. in my thief window, i have an alias for "rit" to send "cast 'ritual voyage' thief" to my shaman, i generally on tank types use "qq" for assist, bite, swarm, then trigger instinct outputs to bite/swarm again... you can pretty easily create a ghetto setup that will make your life a lot easier

I can't speak for the rest of the imm staff, but players generally have to be cheating in bigger ways (or reported for cheating) for me to notice or care about dinky QOL triggers

QOL = quality of life? (e.g. eating and drinking, standing after mem complete, gt tick in 10, gt REGEN OFF, gt heal boost gone, stand if [Pos:sitting], scavenge) = grey area?

...healing via trigger has been the standard in Arctic for a few wipes now

i'd take a non-scripted legendary shaman over a scripted legendary healer any day.  shamans are a little harder to script because of regen.

I agree. If you know how to type you'll always outdo a bot.

Scripts are handy and I'd use a hell of a lot more if I could make them work right (it'd help if I'd drop cMUD for something like MUSHclient I'm sure).  Instead I end up manually healing+tanking everything and using a whole shitload of highlights macros and with variables I change as needed.  There's absolutely zero chance I'd ever manually dualbox casters though.
